Thomas Frank provides update on Eze

Speaking after his side’s 3-0 win over Burnley in their season opener, Tottenham boss Thomas Frank was coy as to whether a deal for any new signing was close.

“We are in the market,” Frank said.

“Daniel (Levy), Johan (Lange) and Vinai (Venkatesham) are working very hard.

“If we can, we’d like to improve the squad.

“But we only want players we think that can improve us.”

Arsenal had also been in the race for Eze, but the desire to give Ethan Nwaneri minutes at No.10 this season led to some hesitation within the club as to whether to add another central attacker.

As for Palace, the potential loss of Eze will come as a major blow given his importance to the squad.

The Eagles are also understood to have decided at the start of the summer they wanted to keep at least one of Eze or Marc Guehi.

It now appears it is the defender who will remain at Selhurst Park.

The potential addition of Eze is undoubtedly a huge coup for Tottenham and Frank given they lost James Maddison for the majority of the season to an ACL injury.

They also swung and missed on a deal for Morgan Gibbs-White.
